Having waited a year for Yohji Yamamoto's diffusion line, Coming Soon, we can now stop fretting our perfectly coiffed heads and finally get our hands on a few of the pieces that have hit NYC store Odin. It's been a limited roll out thus far, but expect to see more pieces hit more stores by 2009. [The Cut]
The (Capsule) New York trade show is going on now in New York, alluding to a few items we'll all likely be wearing next spring (because we are so ahead of the curve, you know). [Material Interest]
Ashton Kutcher is getting back to his modeling roots in the Pepe Jeans Fall ad campaign. Yes, funny can be sexy, but a hot man in nice clothes is always sexy. [Towleroad]
Not long ago your Stylelist reported the looming (re)trend of thermochromatic t-shirts (that's Hypercolor for all you 80's kids). Well, never ones to miss out on a hipster trend, American Apparel has their own version for only $34! Now all I need to do is dig around in my closet for those acid-washed jeans of mine...[Fabsugar]
Tumi is expanding its T-tech line with a full outerwear and bags. Perfect, because a wrinkle-resistant cotton blazer is just what my monthly camping trips have been missing. [DNR]
Renzo Rosso, the big guy behind Diesel, has acquired a major stake in darling Dutch design team, Viktor & Rolf. A huge merger to say the least, the possibilities are exciting, as long as Rosso doesn't get to carried away with the overly-edged Diesel aesthetic. [WWD]
Have Daniel and Wesley of this season's Project Runway found themselves in their own runway romance? According to their MySpace pages, they just might have. [Towleroad]
